This driver purposely drove against traffic and used the wrong lane to save a handful of seconds.
Nashville-area driver and Redditor /u/VonBub57 shared footage from earlier in October (Oct 15, 2026) to the /r/IdiotsInCars subreddit showing this doofus clearly used to driving against opposing traffic to slot into the opposing turn lane just to get ahead of a handful of other drivers.
Here’s their “pro move” caught on dashcam below, with the original Reddit thread linked here.
As mentioned, the incident happened on U.S. Route 41 Alternate/ Rosa Parks Blvd. (Exact location on Google Maps linked here.)
As the dashcam shows, OP is headed northbound on U.S. Route 41 toward the I-65 W entrance.
OP switches to a rear-view shot showing a driver in a Honda Pilot, initially in his lane, deliberately crossing double solid yellow lines into opposing traffic to stop in the opposing turn lane.
This is not a case of being confused; they’ve likely done this before.
When they get the green to turn onto I-65, the Pilot mashes his gas and cuts everyone, saving a couple of seconds?
“I mean, clearly the two left-turn lanes wasn’t adequate so can you blame them for adding a third?,” the top comment from /u/greenlakejohnny reads.
“Another example of everyday-everywhere-every-driver continued demonstration of willful disregard of traffic laws with NO consequences that’s going to become the normal accepted behavior and bite ALL of us in the soon-to-be-here future…,” /u/11B-33T added.
“I despise Nashville drivers to the point that I miss being around Memphis drivers, fewer speeders but way more incompetent drivers,” /u/TheDubbedOtaku commented.
In Nashville, the behavior shown could be cited as careless driving, because the city ordinance prohibits driving in a way that endangers people or property. Tennessee assigns 4 points for careless or negligent driving, improper passing, and wrong-way driving.
A typical payable moving-violation ticket in Davidson County is $113.75 including fees, according to the county’s 2026 traffic-court schedule; if the driver contests it and is found guilty, court costs and litigation taxes may increase the total.
